I have felt for a long time, probably since Junior High, that I really felt out of place, like I don't belong here. I had read about the occult and some about buddhism about reincarnation back in school, mostly in High School. And this feeling would come and go, just a feeling like what the hell am I doing here. I live in the Los Angeles area.
Then in November 2004 I went to Bangkok, Thailand for a vacation. A woman I met online took me around one day, we went to see a temple called the "Gold Dome" temple in Bangkok. There is this long series of steps up to the temple. I am fairly tall at 6 feet, I usually take 2 steps at a time but, in the heat and sun, I was getting tired. So, I started to take one step at a time. An amazing feeling came over me. Part revelation and part exhiliration. It dawned on me that all the "Zen" sayings I had heard over the years made sense, about being there in the moment, and making do with what is there. At least that is what I recalled. It was effortless almost to walk the rest of the way to the top, not rushing but, just walking up the steps. From then I realized how not to push things, not walking fast, cause I will get there anyway, either mode. Anyway, being in Thailand just became more relaxing and I was more at ease with myself.
January 2005, I did some work with a "psychic" in a group. I had met her the year before in the same type of setting. She does a reading or more like she can see and converse with the spirits that are around at that point in time. Well, what she told me confirmed what I had felt all along. She said that in a previous life, had been quite properous in Thailand trading along the coast. Gads no wonder I alway feel very comfortable being in Thailand.
And the woman I met in November 2004, is now my girlfriend, and her spirit and I supposed had a previous love affair in a previous life. Hell, no wonder we get along so easy. Cause I have met other women there, some prettier and they pale in her shadow.
Sorry it is a little long but, you asked how. LOL
It's something you have to feel in your heart or gut.
Guess where I would like to retire? Of course, Thailand.
Good luck

I believe in past lives. I have always been interested, even as a young child, I remember knowing that I have been here before. When I was 24, I wrote a poem about a young man being "selected" to join the military, and being part of the D-Day invasion. I could smell the stench of blood and wet sand and fuel/gun powder and the paint that was on his face was burning my eyes. The bullet that killed him, I felt that too. It felt like someone punched me really hard and fast, then I burned all over in my torso, and I was real warm and then suddenly really cold again only colder and I knew I was going to be another dead body on that beach. I was there. It was me.

every person has a past life it's just a matter coming into contact of what it was. I crossed my past self when my coven did a seance. The spirit went into my friend and then tried to kill me for being an imposter and looking like her. One of my past lives i was a seamstress who worked with a little magic. She had four children and was killed at age 20. Two the children are still alive today and i'm going to visit them at christmas. Jessica and Marishcka. All of the children were girls and they practice the craft as their mother did. I don' tknow how she died but i'll find that out at christmas.
Blessed BE.

IMO no one can "know for sure" that they've lived past lives.
I do have a deep down feeling that I am way beyond my actual age.
I also believe that the dreams we have while sleeping may actually be remembrances of times past. One such dream involved myself, though it didn't feel like "me", hiding from Nazis in some tall weeds along a riverbank.
BTW I do Not believe in dream interpretation.

some believe that we are destined to re live our lives over and over UNTIL we get it right...I think I'll be on THIS ride for a VERY LONG TIME...I can't seem to do anything right!! LOL
I still get those feelings of having done the exact same thing...or of seeing the same thing...so...yeah..I've had a past life...not sure if it's the same one...or someone else's messed up one..
